Dr Derek is now in Lombok, Indonesia working with Crisis Relief Society (Singapore) providing free medical aid. He has worked with them several times previously following major international natural disasters.

The Indonesian island of Lombok has been hit by a series of earthquakes, starting with a 6.4 magnitude quake on July 29th, followed by a 6.9 magnitude quake on August 5th causing widespread devastation, deaths and injuries. Since then at least 340 aftershocks have been felt across the island, including neighbouring Bali.
